Hello!
This is my first post here. I have been a mac user for some time, complete mac household. I finally allowed my Airport Extreme to be a router - it has been operating in bridge mode for some time. At the same time, I replaced my ADSL modem with a much newer ADSL2+ modem. I set it up (it has an internal DHCP server for setup only) via the unit while it was in bridge mode, got it connected to the internet, and plugged it into the airport extreme. Works beautifully.
My only complaint - now I cannot get into the setup of my modem. Looking at the airport utility, I can see the routers real IP address and the IP address it has assigned the Airport Extreme. As we are running NAT, we are in another subnet. Is there a way of accessing the webpage of my modem, via the airport, so I dont have to unplug it, plug it into my mac, make changes, and then plug it back into the airport? Have looked up a lot of websites and searched the forums with no reward. Help please!
